- Rooney, Blueside

**Explored**

I'm not sure how well this shot fits the song, but I gave it a shot. For one of the weekly song choices posted by Pikespice in Musically Challenged this week.

This was taken just outside of Prehistoric Forest, where a bunch of old kiddie rides were dumped. They were fun to shoot. I have some cute shots of Tom, Ashley and Shannon shooting them too. :)

Musically Challenged: Rooney - Blueside

From your feet up to your hair - more than anything I swear

I wanna be - your underwear

From Bryan Adams

I wanna be your underwear

(also inspired by JJ)

whiteness.

i'm clearly phoning this one in.

i wanted to play again in Musically Challenged. but i've hardly time to take any photos to pair with songs right now.

instead i sifted through the lyrics of the ten weekly songs and then i dug, dug, dug through the photos i've taken in the past several weeks, looking for a hit. however, nothing stood out to me, nothing was that well suited. no cobblestone streets or a halo streetlamp that scream 'Sound of Silence'. (or whisper, as the case may be)

so i leave you, once again, with further proof that my predilection towards the pacific ocean and kid reflections is alive and well.

"American Boy," by Estelle

Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day

Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA.

I really want to come kick it with you.

You'll be my American Boy. American Boy.

* i'm actually delighted to have discovered this song, though. thanks, Musically Challenged!

it's got this funky but tranquil thing going. not something i'd normally gravitate to, but glad i had a listen. plus it's got three Best Things Ever in it: a British singer, Kanye West, and Adidas shell toes.

edit: this totally fits with TOTW: "Happy Happy, Joy Joy", as well! the kid is clearly happy splashing around!
